Sal Presents "T'ree Up, T'ree Down wit' Sal." Today's Guest: 'Swedish Shef'

Hey, folks. Sal again. Today Sal would like to present the second edition of "T'ree Up, T'ree Down wit' Sal," the thing where Sal asks other baseball guys t'ree questions. Today's guest is Gary Sheffield.








Since Gary plays for the same team as Sal, we have to protect his identity, so we'll call him 'Swedish Shef.'

This is not to be confused wit' that crazy funny muppet.











Actually, Sal would love it if Gary was that crazy funny muppet. Sal likes his funny talkin' and mess makin'. Sal wishes he had a teammate like that.













Sal: Swedish Shef, thanks for comin' on "T'ree Up, T'ree Down wit' Sal."

Swedish Shef: What the hell you call me?

Sal: Here's question one comin': Swedish Shef, you been learnin' how to play first base. In fact, you're good enough now that you'll be joinin' Sal on the post-season roster. Are you nervous about playin' first, Swedish Shef?

Swedish Shef: Call me that one more time and I'm gonna slap you in your eye.

Sal: Sal will assume that's a yes. Here's question two comin': Swedish Shef....

(Editor's note: there was a slight delay in the interview here because 'Swedish Shef' slapped Sal in the eye. An ice-pack was applied and Sal is fine.)

Sal: OK, let's try again. Here's question two comin' again: Swe...uh, Shef you have a reputation for acting like what we in baseball call "an asshole."

Swedish Shef: What's your question?

Sal: No question. Here's question three comin': you have a habit of referrin' to Sal as "Fu ManBoobs." Don't you know that Sal has what we in baseball call a "glandular problem?"

Swedish Shef: We 'bout done?

Sal: That's all the time we got for "T'ree Up, T'ree Down wit' Sal." Sorry this was not the usual kind of interviewin' you expect from Sal. Sal hopes you forgive him after watchin' the only muppet wit' a fu manchu.



Crazy funny.
